New polymeric phosphonato‐, phosphinato‐ and carboxybetaïnes, 1. Syntheses and characterization by IR spectroscopy

Abstract

Abstract Neutral phosphonato‐, phosphinato‐, and carboxybetaïne moieties linked to various polymer supports, poly(styrene‐ co ‐4‐vinylpyridine) and poly(styrene‐ co ‐4‐dimethylaminomethylstyrene), were synthesized by a two step sequence. These products were characterized by means of FTIR analysis. Complexing properties towards transition metal salts are outlined.
